Clinical Laboratory Science Students Initiated Into Lambda Tau at ÍøÆØÃÅ
The Beta Delta Chapter of Lambda Tau, a national medical
technology honor society at the University of Louisiana at Monroe, held its
annual dinner meeting and induction ceremony recently in the Conference
Center of the ÍøÆØÃÅ Library.
The purposes of Lambda Tau honor society are to develop a spirit
of cooperation and unity among students entering any of the fields
encompassed by laboratory technology; to stimulate a higher ideal for
scholastic effort to encourage research and to help develop the professional
character of the work itself; to interest other students in these fields; to
determine and make known the requirements of hospitals and other
institutions offering training approved by the National Accrediting Agency
for Clinical Laboratory Sciences; and to become better acquainted with
medical biology and the workers in these fields in order to receive the
benefit of mutual discussions and associations with fellows of common
interest.
To be eligible for membership an individual must be enrolled in
a college or university in clinical laboratory science, have earned two full
semesters of college credit, and have a grade point average of 2.8 or
higher.
Clinical laboratory science majors who were inducted and their
hometowns are Catherine Alesich, Kimberly Barrett and Pratima Kumari, all of
Monroe; Lisa Lowery, Brian McCarty, Crystal Powell and Cindy Savell, all of
West Monroe; Michelle Green of Calhoun; Callee Gwin of Rayville; and
Courtnei Gabriel of Shreveport.
